CEREC^® uses computer aided, state-of-the-art dental technology to design and fabricate ceramic dental restorations in our practice.

This allows your dentist to measure, design, manufacture and fit a bridge, crown, or other dental restoration in a single appointment which means less time in the chair for you.

Are there any other advantages to CEREC^® restorations?

CEREC^® eliminates the need for using any messy dental putty or wearing a temporary prosthetic. The digital technology ensures a precise and accurate fit for better comfort. CEREC^® restorations look and feel like natural teeth and the shade is matched to the exact colour of your natural teeth for a seamless appearance. The durable materials used for CEREC^® restorations are less prone to flaws and cracks.

What does a typical CEREC^® treatment involve?

The dentist will numb the area and prepare the tooth by removing excess or diseased material and cleaning and disinfecting the area.

Next the dentist or technician takes a 3D scan of your teeth and gums and inputs the results in the CEREC^® system’s computer and milling machine.

The milling machine creates the crown, bridge, or other prosthesis that will fit and match your smile perfectly.

Your dentist positions the prothesis, ensures that it fits correctly, and cements it in place.

What is the lifespan of a CEREC^® prothesis?

A CEREC^® restoration can last up to 20 years or more with proper cleaning and care.
